Video: Michael Lange on WALD

Silence, stillness, and a sense of solace are the hallmarks of the photographs in Michael Lange's series WALD, completed in 2012, and his first landscape series. In this video introduction to Lange's atmospheric collection of large format color images made in German forests, the photographer discusses the genesis of WALD including its central themes as well as his personal relationship with the forest. Lange also speaks to his photographic practice while creating WALD and how its signature muted and silvery look came into being.
